Me (reading silently): Klide ano do KOTO?
Klide: Love ko 'to 🤣
Elections are always intense. It's inaccurate to say that this one has been the most. Pero siguro, it is perfect to say that this, and last year with Marcos, has been the most degenerate. Sobrang kababaan na, and there is still a long way down to go - we have not even experienced what Mindanao was like. Still to me, this election has been so dismal.
Balikan natin sa simula. The first time I saw the MakaTorres banner, I felt hope. It looked and felt promising. Sabi ni Torres, babaguhin nya ang Makato. It was so naïve of me to think na totoo yun. But he came not to help better the lives of Makaton-ons. He came to seek vengeance to those of us who supported Legaspi.
His supporters say he was "the best" mayor this town had. But what did he do? What did he accomplish? Like the twenty pesos rice, where was the district hospital he promised? And how many mayors did you know in your lifetime para macompare mo ang the best?
In Alot's words,
"Bukon ta abi sanda it pulitiko."
And he could not have said it better. There is a blurred line between politicians and public servants. Kahit itanggi natin, the poor will always seek the help of politicians. And Torres was not one, so he did not change Makato for the better. Even worse than the Legaspi, he created and cultivated a culture of division. From the time he became mayor, Makaton-ons have been very specific of who voted for who; careful in helping a kapartido; always demonstrated revenge at pagiging mata-pobre; chose even more immoral leaders; and started massive vote buying that we could never keep up.
In generous addition, those in higher office were an example of selfish dynasty and money-worship. As evidenced by millions of pesos given to Punong Barangay candidates. Meanwhile, Marcos taught us that it is okay to be bobo and a debate-coward, falsify documents and spread extremely wrong information and twist facts.
Back to Torres, let's multiply his cultural contributions by the number of years he served and look at us now. We have leaders who do not value education, who have extra-marital affairs, mapagbigay in a new context, experts on mud-slinging games and palengkera actually and on the net. This culture of division seeped down to the barangay level.
Personally, the past two elections' effect on me was lost hope and faith in people. Why would they vote for a 30-something married woman with a 60-something married boyfriend or a 40-something woman with no experience but no-breeding rants on Facebook and in real life? Why can't they verify facts so that they would know that Dawn fought with Lotlot because Lotlot was buying votes even in the voting polls? Why would they gloat if they won, isn't it a scary responsibility? Why would they spread hurt sa mga kapwa kabarangay lang naman? Ano ba ang pagkakaintindi nila sa "Honorable" before their names, a title for pokpok and palengkera? What kind of people are they and were did their values go? What happened to us?
What is left now but to feel despair? Makakabangon pa ba? Baka hindi na, wala nang pag-asa. I don't think healing and oneness would come under the wings of sinful people. Besides, they don't seem to want it, too. They want us divided. Traditions, values, virtues, word of honor and morals were gone, were not given importance and were not even glanced at. If I were the Legaspi, I'd let them have Makato. It's so effing rotten anyway.

Yung alam kong hindi pwede
sa true, alam kong hindi naman pwede. may parte sa akin na payapa akong tingnan sya sa malayo. may panahon lang na naiisip ko na malaki ang posibilidad na magmamahal sya ng iba at mawala ako sa tabi nya. Masakit pero may kaunting pagtanggap sa loob ko. Alam ko kasing ganon naman talaga ang mangyayari sa huli. Masaya na ako sa mga panahong nakakasama at nakakausap sya. Kaya yung bawat sandaling yun, palagi kong pinapahalagahan, kahit na minsan wala namang katuturan yung mga sandaling yun. Walang katuturan kasi inaasar at pinipikon lang naman nya ako pero kasama pa din yun sa mga sandaling magkasama kami.
Alam kong hindi pwede kasi hindi naman kagaya ng pagtingin ko, ang pagtiningin nya sa akin. Malayo.. sobrang layo. Isa pa. Imposible.
Ayokong sabihing mahal ko sya. Malapit na dun yung pagitingin ko sa kanya. Pero hindi ko masasabing magmamahal yun ng buo. Nagtitira ako para sa sarili ko, kasi alam kong hindi pwede.
malayo pa ang tatahakin nya pagdating sa pag-ibig. malamang malayo ako dun kasi hindi pwede pero ang dasal ko, makita nya ang taong magmamahal sa kanya kagaya ng pagtingin na meron ako sa kanya. Yung hindi kagaya ng sa akin na hindi pwede at imposible.
